Marine veteran, Joseph Tyrrell, told The Washington Post that Wyatt tried to help fellow Marines returning from overseas engagements. “I know a few guys who suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder, and he’d always be like, ‘Hey man, let’s talk about it,’ ” said Tyrrell. “He really took a more direct approach to helping Marines than some others.
